XD Cloud got owned. But #1 was no secret anyway.
insultman911 said:
Of course everybody loves mario and yoshi.
YoshLee said:
Well I'm not surprised that mario got #1 but SWEET Yoshi got #3, as big of a Yoshi fan I am, I didn't expect that.
Juan L said:
Where's Kirby?
Shadow said:
Amazing, simply amazing, Mario is always the beast. He is the father of gaming and the pride of Nintendo. Way to go Mario! Hurrayyy.
Orez said:
Seems like Cloud will appear in SSB4, ooohhh yeeaaahh.
Nova said:
Nice. He's mine too with the possible exception of HK-47.
B Darius said:
I'm surprised Sonic isn't on the list.
wiiguy said:
Hey what about luigi? No one likes him XD.
Mr Friend said:
1000 people isn't really very many. I'd say a Wii's World survey would be more official (although it would have a Nintendo bias due to the demographic).
Quartz said:
Cloud? That's stupid.
Supersmashdodo said:
YES! Mario ftw.
AJR said:
Yeah. Mario. WOOOOOOO.
Nintendoof said:
Yeah! They should host a Mario con for all the Mario fans out there. Professor Layton surprised me. Considering how new he is and all.
Darkrai said:
Where's Sonic and Link?
SSonic22 said:
What no Sonic? What jerks! Oh it's Japan. SONIC is not loved anymore in that country, more on the west. Wait.. Slime? That's not even.. they must be crazy, and a chocobo? Who the heck is Professor Layton.
DJ G said:
PROFESSOR LAYTON?! What is the world coming to?!
SON of A Wii1-4 said:
Why doesn't that surprise me?
SkullHydra said:
Link and Samus are both 1,000,000 times cooler than Mario.
Captain Jamesman said:
Yay yay Mario. No one can beat him in the world of video games.. Wait. I don't see Sonic on the list.
Grunt06 said:
It's not the point of Mario being the coolest or not, it's the fact that he changed gaming forever and if it wasn't for Mario who knows what video games would be like. Or if video games would even be alive in the US.
YoshLee said:
I'm really surprised some of these other characters aren't there: Link, Samus, Luigi, Kirby, Sonic (actually I heard Sonic wasn't doing well in Japan). I've never even heard of Professor Layton.
Aeth said:
Wow, though several choice are no brainer I'm surprised Link, Sonic, Kirby, Samus, or Fox didn't make the list.
Sonic Phantom said:
Uh, who's Professor Layton?
onlybowseruser said:
Oh my god Slime? That's like saying.. um that Weezing is my favorite. And Professor Layton has 1 game. It got 8/10 but still. Where's Bowser? Got to love the evil.
Wii Freak said:
Go Mario.
Ultigonio said:
Yoshi is the shizz in Japan, it seems. Awesome. But no Kirby? C'mon, now. And I don't think Cloud deserves second.
#1 Mario Fan said:
Of course #1 would be the King of video games.
Master Foot said:
Mario looks taller standing on that purple rock.
Rozz said:
Cool, Cloud was always one of my favorite characters. Nice to see he's almost as popular as Mario.
The Yoshi Guy said:
YOSHI'S #3! But who the **** is Cloud?
Mafesto said:
WHAT? How the hell is Professor Layton more popular than Kirby? This is an outrage.
Diddy Kong Lover said:
Wait a minute no Pikachu, no Sonic ouch!
Son Ninja said:
Mario made gaming history from the very day Nintendo brought gaming back from the grave, he will never be forgotten and there are zillions of Mario fans both young and old who still enjoy playing his games.
Yo-Gi said:
Mario might be first, but Yoshi and Luigi are both 1st for me.
Doraemon said:
Doraemon is SO awesome.
